The role of the Doula originally was occupied by many women in the community who had various pieces ofknowledge about women’s reproductive health and how to raise healthy children. Inevitably, certain women would show particular skill for assisting during a difficult childbirth and providing care for a new family.

In order for Doulas to act as a true resource and advocate for mothers and their families we believe that they require at least a basic understanding of how to nourish, support and cleanse the female body in the same way our mothers have for generations; with the aide of medicinal stews, teas, steams and baths.
